Description
本揭示案的實施例一般係關於用於處理腔室的基板支撐件,以及與其一起使用的RF接地配置。
射頻(RF)功率用於基板(如半導體基板)處理中,以用於產生電漿、靜電吸附等。在一些處理系統中,RF功率經由電容耦接被供應到第一電極以及輸送到第二電極(如基板支撐件)。第二電極經由電連接而耦接到電源供應器,以允許RF功率返回到源,從而完成RF電路。
在傳統配置中,RF帶(RF strap)有助於RF功率通過RF濾波器流到RF電纜。高RF電流和長處理時間使得RF電纜過熱,導致部件劣化或電弧作用。
因此,需要改良RF接地配置。
在一個實施例中,提供了一種設備,其包括腔室主體,腔室主體至少部分地在其中界定處理空間。基座設置在處理空間中。第一電極與基座相對地設置在處理空間中。第二電極設置在基座中。導電桿耦接到第二電極。射頻(RF)濾波器包括第一電容器,第一電容器耦接到導電桿且耦接接地。RF濾波器亦包括LC諧振電路與第二電容器,LC諧振電路耦接到導電桿,第二電容器耦接到LC諧振電路且耦接接地。
在另一個實施例中,提供了一種設備,其包括腔室主體,腔室主體至少部分地在其中界定處理空間。基座設置在處理空間中。第一電極與基座相對地設置在處理空間中。第二電極設置在基座中。導電桿耦接到第二電極。RF濾波器耦接到導電桿。RF濾波器包括第一電容器與第一電感器,第一電容器耦接到導電桿,第一電感器耦接到導電桿。饋通箱包括以串聯耦接的第二電感器和第二電容器。電源供應器通過饋通箱和RF濾波器耦接到第二電極。
在又一個實施例中,提供了一種設備,其包括腔室主體,腔室主體至少部分地在其中界定處理空間。基座設置在處理空間中。基座包括基板支撐件和軸,該軸耦接到腔室主體以支撐基板支撐件。第一電極與基座相對地設置在處理空間中。第二電極設置在基座中。導電桿延伸穿過基座的軸且耦接到第二電極。RF濾波器設置在殼體中且耦接到導電桿。RF濾波器包括第一電容器與第一電感器,第一電容器耦接到導電桿且耦接到殼體,第一電感器耦接到導電桿。饋通箱包括以串聯耦接的第二電感器和第二電容器。電纜耦接到第一電感器且耦接到第二電感器。電源供應器通過饋通箱和RF濾波器耦接到第二電極。電源供應器在第二電感器和第二電容器之間耦接。
本揭示案的實施例一般係關於用於處理腔室的基板支撐件,以及與其一起使用的RF接地配置。亦描述了將RF電流接地的方法。腔室主體至少部分地在其中界定處理空間。第一電極設置在處理空間中。基座與第一電極相對設置。第二電極設置在基座中。RF濾波器通過導電桿耦接到第二電極。RF濾波器包括第一電容器,第一電容器耦接到導電桿且耦接接地。RF濾波器亦包括耦接到饋通箱的第一電感器。饋通箱包括以串聯耦接的第二電容器和第二電感器。用於第二電極的直流(DC)電源供應器耦接在第二電容器和第二電感器之間。
圖1示出了根據本揭示案的一個實施例的處理腔室100。處理腔室100包括腔室主體102,腔室主體102至少部分地在其中界定處理空間104。基座110設置在處理空間104中。RF接地配置120耦接到基座110。電極101(如噴頭)與基座110相對設置。RF電源106耦接到電極101,以利於處理腔室100內的電漿產生。在處理期間,來自RF電源106的功率電容耦接到基座110。
基座110包括基板支撐件111,基板支撐件111設置在支撐軸112的上端處。基板支撐件111由陶瓷材料(如氮化鋁)形成,而支撐軸112由金屬(如鋁)或陶瓷(如氮化鋁)形成。電阻加熱元件(未圖示)可以可選地設置在基板支撐件111中,以利於基板支撐件111的溫度調節。電極113(如RF網格)設置在基板支撐件111中,以利於處理腔室100內的電漿產生。導電桿107(如RF桿)耦接到電極113且穿過軸112延伸到RF濾波器114。RF濾波器114可經配置為通濾波器(pass filter,如,使所需要的RF頻率通過,同時阻擋不需要的頻率),可經配置為阻斷濾波器(blocking filter,如,經配置為限制或禁止通過電漿傳導的RF能量離開處理腔室),或可經配置為將RF和DC功率組合在單一電極(如電極113或基座110內的另一電極)上。
RF濾波器114包括設置在其中的第一電容器130和第一電感器132。第一電容器130設置在RF桿107到RF濾波器114的導電殼體114a之間,並將RF桿107電連接到RF濾波器114的導電殼體114a。以這種方式,由RF桿107傳導的RF電流通過第一電容器130傳導到導電(如,接地)殼體114a,然後傳導到處理腔室100的導電(如,接地)腔室主體102的內表面。然後,RF電流可返回到RF功率產生器106的接地。第一電感器132在電極113和RF電纜117之間以串聯耦接。第一電感器132有助於阻擋流過RF電纜117的殘餘RF電流。在一個實例中,通過RF濾波器114的13.56 MHz的RF電流在RF接地配置120中約為2.5 A(rms)。
與傳統方法相比,通過將RF功率電流引導到腔室主體102的內表面,第一電容器130和第一電感器132的組合減少流過RF電纜117的RF電流。在一個實例中,與傳統方法相比,流過RF電纜117的RF功率電流減小了約90百分比(%)。因此,減少了處理腔室100中的電弧作用和部件劣化。另外,在本說明書中揭示的實施例中,RF電纜117承載小於3 A(rms),使得與傳統方法相比,RF電纜在較冷的溫度下操作。因為RF電纜117在較冷的溫度下操作,所以減輕了電連接的非預期性或不期望的焊料回流。此外,減少了處理腔室100內的電弧作用。
RF電纜117亦耦接到靜電卡盤(ESC)饋通箱125。高壓直流(HV DC)電源供應器126向ESC饋通箱125輸入功率,以利於位於基座110內的靜電卡盤(未圖示)的操作。ESC饋通箱125利於HV DC電流傳導通過RF電纜117、通過RF濾波器114以及傳導到基座110和電極113。
ESC饋通箱125包括在HV DC電源126和RF電纜117之間以串聯設置的電容器136和電感器134。與傳統方法相比,大幅簡化ESC饋通箱125,例如,省略可變電容器(如通常稱為「底部調諧器」)。饋通箱125耦接接地。
圖2示出了根據本揭示案的一個態樣的基座110和與其耦接的RF接地配置220。可使用RF接地配置220來代替圖1中所示的RF接地配置120。RF接地配置220包括RF濾波器214。RF濾波器214包括與LC諧振電路240串聯設置的電容器230。LC諧振電路240包括彼此以並聯設置的電容器234和電感器232。ESC電纜236將來自HV DC電源供應器126的HV DC功率透過RF電纜117傳導到基座110。電容器238將RF電纜117耦接到RF濾波器214的導電殼體214a。
在圖2的實例中,RF功率(例如,在13.56 MHz的頻率下)透過處理腔室(如處理腔室100)中的電漿耦接到RF網格或基座110內的另一電極。RF網格或其他電極經由電容器230透過RF桿107連接到接地。選擇電容器230的電容,使得電容器230為13.56 MHz的RF電流提供虛擬接地。而且,選擇電容器230使得加熱器對接地阻抗匹配一已知的一值。LC諧振電路240利於阻擋流過RF電纜117的任何殘餘RF電流。當與圖1中所示的RF接地配置120相比時,LC諧振電路240提供比第一電感器132更高的阻抗。電容器238利於橫跨(across)RF電纜117的RF電壓的接地,使得橫跨RF電纜117的電壓(以及因此電流)為零或接近零。在一個實例中,RF電壓小於10 V(rms)。在一個實例中,透過RF濾波器214的輸出處的感測器量測的13.56 MHz的RF電流約為0.5 A(rms)。
圖3示出了傳統的RF接地配置320。傳統的RF接地配置320耦接到基座310。基座可設置在處理腔室中,如關於圖1描述的處理腔室100。RF接地配置320包括RF濾波器314和底部調諧器340。RF桿312穿過基座310的軸延伸到RF濾波器314。RF濾波器314在其中包括RF帶316,RF帶316將RF桿312耦接到RF電纜318。RF電纜318連接到底部調諧器340。底部調諧器340包括可變電容器342和電感器344,其與固定電容器348和電感器346以並聯設置。在傳統的RF接地配置320中,從基座310傳導的所有RF電流透過底部調諧器340接地到處理腔室的主體,底部調諧器340繼而連接到RF功率產生器接地。在這樣的配置中,底部調諧器340內的13.56 MHz的RF電流約為25 A(rms),這導致先前所論述的問題。
